you're losing me being written in 2021 surprised me a bit but didn't like totally shock me or make me reevaluate the whole album really. we already have hits different and the great war telling the story of a relationship that hits a breaking point before choosing to try again together and if anything it makes more sense to me as something that informs the backdrop but was written a while before the album was assembled

#like idk given that we know they were literally buying a house together at the start of this year #clearly there was a point of things being more steady and i think midnights being released during that point makes sense #in terms of tracklisting etc. obviously there's lots of turmoil but ultimately it gives the sense of overcoming the worst #as opposed to living it presently #talking #taylor swift

I am of the DPxDC belief/headcanon that any variation of Danny who grew up poor in Gotham during his formative years before moving to Amity Park would not be friends with Sam without friction at first. It makes things more interesting and imo allows for more exploration of different themes plus character growth for Sam that she doesn't really go through in canon.

(this doesn't only apply to a DPDC au where Danny grew up in Gotham poor, but it was the first thing that I thought of where this might happen considering my Childhood Friends au.)

Now Sam's a compassionate girl, it's one of her defining character traits, but so is her hypocrisy and judgy-ness. She's the Not Like Other Girls' girl. This is in part of the show's narrative framing that makes her out like this, unfortunately though its still showing how she is as a character since its consistent enough to be part of her character description. There are also times where the show's depiction of her activism makes it look like she's performative about it. All of this makes her dynamic with a Danny who grew up poor in Gotham very interesting.

Anyways, Sam is aware of her privilege to an extent, but still has her blindspots - glaring ones, in some cases. Her self-righteous attitude would not go over well with a crime alley kid Danny. He'd like her, at first, but then she'd do something to make him mad - personally I think her judging people for not being vegan would annoy him the most, or at least would be the breaking point for him, because it was only recently that his family started actually being able to consistently put food on the table at all, good food nonetheless. And being vegan is expensive.

Any other behavior he noticed from her he'd slowly stop tolerating - her judging conventionally attractive girls and automatically assuming they're vapid and shallow for being feminine. Her anti-capitalist beliefs start coming off as superficial at worst, and Danny would eventually figure out that Sam either came from a family that was well off, or that she wasn't aware if her family was experiencing financial struggle.

He would still be friends with Tucker, but since Tucker imo is still friends with Sam, they'd still run into each other often enough to butt heads. Sam's got a nasty habit of refusing to take responsibility when she's wrong, but when Danny is arguing with her, and counterpointing her with stuff she can't retort back at without compromising her own beliefs, then forces her to start reflecting on herself. Especially when Tucker eventually starts siding with Danny and agreeing with him.

Does sam genuinely care about her beliefs and philosophies? Survey says yes. However that doesn't mean she's not ignorant, and she definitely is at times throughout the show (like when she released the purpleback gorilla thinking it 'wanted out of its enclosure' despite the fact that it was endangered and in an urban area) and I think it'd be a real fascinating dynamic between Danny and Sam to explore.

This isn't Sam hate btw, nor am I trying to make her out like "the worst person ever" bc she's not, i wanna make that explicitly clear. Sam Manson has a lot of positive traits about her but she also has an equal amount of negative traits that I think should be explored, she is not immune to the character development.

#dpdc #dpxdc crossover #dpxdc #dpdc headcanon #dpxdc headcanon #dpxdc danny fenton #dpxdc sam manson #on a funnier note to me Danny asks Sam how much a loaf of bread costs and she can't tell him bc she doesn't know #she's an activist but also look me in the eyes and tell me she knows how much stuff at the grocery store costs #rich girl advocate sam vs crime alley kid danny FIGHT #does sam genuinely care about her beliefs and philosophies? survey says yes. however that doesn't mean she's not ignorant #cfau danny calls her privileged once and sam turns a new shade of red #this isn't sam hate btw i wanna make that explicitly clear #she's great i love her hOWEVER i am not blind to her flaws and i think it gets ignored by fanon AND canon in favor of girlbossing her #this also brings up the idea that Sam (based on her releasing the gorilla) would either respect damian wayne or HATE him bc she's judgy #and one of her flaws is her moral superiority over others. how very christian of you Sam - and i know she's jewish. thats part of the irony #he'd open an animal rehabilitation center and she'd assume the absolute worst. its hilarious. Damian would eat her alive #im taking a bat to a hornet's nest i think

Voyager should have had an episode where the command trio beat the absolute hell out of each other while blaming each other for being stuck in the delta quadrant as the fever pitch of a rising tension that was building throughout the episode. Like, they're absolutely being pushed to do it by some outside force. Maybe it's a telepathic being - maybe it's that they're stuck in some arena or an alien court or a time loop only the three of them are aware of - no matter the specifics, the sentiment behind their words has to be true and it has to be something they've been keeping back for months, maybe years. That fear and hatred and blame that doesn't really have an actual target because it's not actually rational but 'who's to blame' doesn't have to be capital T true to feel true. If Chakotay hadn't been in the badlands, If Janeway hadn't made that choice, If Tuvok hadn't supported it... "You trapped us here. It's your fault. If you hadn't-! If you hadn't-! If you hadn't-!" are just echoes of "I trapped us here. It's my fault. If I hadn't-! If I hadn't-! If I hadn't-!" Because at the end of the day more than being angry or hateful they're despairing in their own ways. Episode probably has a somber end - they beat whatever it was and it's a victory! They won by working together even after they beat each other half to death! But after the celebration we see them alone in their quarters...silent. Gazing out at the stars, into a candle's flame, at that same family picture before turning away. Because even though they won they're still there in the delta quadrant. Is that really victory?

#fake star trek voyager episodes my beloved #the thought of a time loop wherein the three of them are at times aware of the loop and at times aren't but it's ONLY the three of them is #a separate but interesting thought I had while writing this... #of course the looped time would be 'Caretaker' #st voy #star trek voyager #Chakotay/Janeway/Tuvok #Chakotay #Kathryn Janeway #Tuvok #and yes I think people undervalue the fact that Tuvok agreed with Janeway when she made that decision in 'caretaker' too much #idk enough about the chakotay buzz to know whether or not they also do this with how Chakotay also co-signs the decision once it's made #instead of fighting back against it which he very much COULD have done #I just think the complicated 3 way uneven guilt is more interesting than 'Janeway did it it was 100% her alone' #I love seeing characters devolve...even a starfleet captain and a vulcan can be driven to wrestling in the mud they think they're so above #and maybe it's 'the worst version of themselves' but maybe it's also a release - a relief you just can't get from talking

[thekidsarentalright]

it really is funny whenever anyone tries to act like certain lyricist/artists are better or on the same caliber as pete and fob like genuinely just the mere fact you think and wanna argue that shows just how much you do nottttt get fob and should have them taken away from u <3

#like even petes ‘worst’ lyrics are better and more intentionally poetically written than anything taylor could come up w on a good day #releasing this into the beautiful echo chamber that is foblr where i know u all agree w me. beautiful place here #seeing twitters takes is always so scary but making fun of them is fun HFIDNDK #txt

i really like disney losing money on bad movies they make but i do hate that sooo much money, effort, and time from the artists is taken for a purposefully mediocre "safe" product massacred by heartless execs.

#i know these arent directly related but #it sucks that studios make so much crap that no one sees or stays unreleased while others have nothing to eat #and asking for constant updates to the movie even like weeks before release just for the end product to suck #omg!! its the worst #and they make it so juvenile too like animation can be enjoyed by everyone not just little kids

[swinging-stars-from-satellites]

connection between "the poets are just kids who didn't make it" -> "I went to sleep a poet and I woke up a fraud" -> "I'll check in tomorrow if I don't wake up dead"

also a branch off there that ties Hand of God with TMOTM but that's actually a lyric comp I'm planning to make soon more than an actual note

#lftos essay #I'm just posting notes now. apparently. I'm trying to write out an outline rn skfnskngsk #EDIT the connection between hand of god and tmotm is the fraud/liar bit #hand of god is very eh whatever about it. hand to my heart gun to my head swear to God I'm through with this - I'm the worst liar I know #tmotm is CONCISE and DIRECT and SPECIFIC. I went to sleep a poet and I woke up a fraud #which. idk when tmotm was written exactly. patrick wanted it on the album proper instead of dark alley and champagne #but the song released in march 2006. I'm just saying that in a lot of ways hand of god feels like a draft almost #and MUCH of what it says both literally and thematically is transfered into tmotm #the contrast of the 2nd verse of hand of god vs the clarity and precision of ''went to sleep a poet and woke up a fraud'' ? #um.... hm. I won't conjecture #especially not on main. but....... I do have An Emotion about this ngl #ok that was just for my own notes ignore me. pencil in hand I'm just trying to make this work #moving on.

#clementine and lee....unbeatable sorry (im not sorry actually) #ive been finally watching the show lately and lets just say its increased my opinions of the games hsdfksjd #dont get me wrong its not the worst thing ive ever seen but hoo boy does it go downhill. binged 6 seasons and hit a brick wall at 7 #struggling to finish it now but ive made it to S10 #havent heard much better things about the comics...i just want to know more Lore #it speaks #twdg #sorry skybound she will always be telltales baby shes living her best life at ericsons forever no matter how many comics you make #idk how much clearer S4 can be about ericsons being clems forever home but apparently skybound didnt get the message #im just surprised they havent shoved her into one of their 1000 shows yet #something i used to want and now deeply fear. i just wanted her to have a cameo but theyd never let it end #one of the last things telltale released being the end of clems story is Very fitting it closed the book on her And the studio #(averting my eyes from the walking corpse that is now telltale 2.0 💀 still fitting i guess now just sad) #the credit graffiti and the 'thanks for playing' make me cry every time 😭 S4 is such a love letter S4 my beloved

(re: reblog tags on the nimona post) so. i went back and found the boy. the lad. my editing white whale. the trajectory went like this: friends and i had been talking in a groupchat about idris elba being cast as knuckles circa 2021 and the subsequent quick resurgence of people outright admitting they’d sick nasty bang a fictional echidna if they could, so i made this edit in response to that line of conversation:

admittedly. this was my first mistake. i then expanded on it (second mistake) by editing knuckles into a pre-existing animal crossing meme (it had been a callback to a previous conversation in the chat)

(i think i acc submitted the compressed version to this blog once ive put it below for continuity reasons but cannae remember for sure ANYWAY)

so then a friend in this chat says ‘eurgh hate how this looks like that one rayman 3 advert’ and i go ‘…bwah?’ find the ad, laugh my ass off, rush to my editing software and produce THIS monstrosity in a blackout fugue state. it’s the most unsustainable edit ive ever made so glad for it to see the light of day even once more as it likely never will again. i gave him the froggy footstool bc he was too manlet to reach the urinal comfortably and i thought it was better than making him huge or stretched out so! w/o further ado i present: ✨knuckles_pissing_shortly.jpeg✨

sorry.

I'll be honest my takeaway from all this is that you're too funny for this website and also that you should probably become an author

#jokes aside this one has kinda been languishing in my inbox for a while because I hadn't a clue what to do with it #but you know what #public release #what's the worst that could happen #not a pic #someone asked me a thing! #OH ALSO I'm pretty sure I already knew this about you but [points sagely] that's the neurodivergent anectodal ramble I know it when I see i #[spider-man voice] You're like me...

kind of obsessed with how fukuchi's line about "if you attack me one by one, i will kill you one by one" has held true through this entire arc. tachihara fought him alone, and he failed. jouno attacked him alone, and he failed. even when ranpo and fukuzawa went to confront him, they did it one by one (ranpo first with poe's book page, and fukuzawa second with his sword), and fukuchi eliminated them from the fight one by one. the only time anyone even escaped a confrontation was when atsushi and akutagawa finally worked together, fully and entirely trusting each other. it was when they finally attacked him as a combined force. if characters keep fighting against fukuchi one by one, they are going to continue to be defeated one by one.

#releasing this from the drafts too. be free #and the worst part is... it makes so much sense as to WHY each of these characters continuously goes at him solo #tachi jouno ranpo and fukuzawa ALL think they alone are the one who can defeat him #tachi is the only one who can manipulate metal and therefore gain control of fukuchi's sword #jouno can dematerialize and therefore avoid being struck with any blade #including one that can cross space and time #ranpo is literally the smartest person in the world #and fukuzawa is the one who knows fukuchi best #but separately they can't defeat him. had they all worked together #fukuchi never would have stood a chance #but they fought him one by one. and he took them out one by one. #the thing about bsd is it's clear the Big Bads can only be defeated when the characters work together #it's stated multiple times that the agency is at its best when they're all together #the characters are ALL stronger when they WORK TOGETHER #and yet.. when push comes to shove #many of them still believe that they alone are at the top. they alone are capable. and they either defeat the enemy themself #or they will die trying #and to some extent i think that comes from a place of 'let me fight alone so no one else dies' #but if you attack alone. you're all going to die alone #bsd spoilers

ok i know it probably doesn't mean anything and they've just confirmed a weird group of people so far but the cast and crew of rvb: restoration (on apple tv) NOT including tucker or carolina has me terrified
